The capitalist media throws out terms like jobless recovery and strong growth. We hear about government shutdowns, debt ceilings, hedge funds and financial tools. But the articles and talk shows seem to mystify rather than clarify what’s really going on. Years after the so-called economic recovery, 7 million working-age people remain unemployed. Now that the government shutdown is over, the stage is set for the Republicans and the Democrats to implement more cuts to programs that benefits poor and working people.

Join us for an interactive discussion about the capitalist economic crisis and organizing against a system that always rewards capitalists and victimizes workers.
